Abstract

A method for controlling a temperature of a terminal and a terminal supporting the same are provided. A terminal supporting temperature control includes a temperature sensor for detecting a temperature of the terminal, and a controller for performing at least one of a first throttle procedure including driving the controller with a first preset driving frequency when the temperature of the terminal detected by the temperature sensor is a first preset temperature, and driving the controller with a second driving frequency higher than the first driving frequency when the temperature of the terminal is reduced to a second preset temperature lower than the first preset temperature, and a second throttle procedure including driving the controller with the first preset driving frequency for a first time, and driving the controller with the second driving frequency higher than the first driving frequency for a second time after the first time elapses.
